No. 3 Wolverines: As easy as 1-2-3

Bayfield rolls Aztec in straight sets

The Bayfield High School senior opened Thursday nights nonconference volleyball match against Aztec with a textbook-perfect pass to setter Suzie Rhodes.

Rhodes set the ball to Jen Phelps, who drilled the first of a plethora of Bayfield kills.

Fast forward.

Reinmuth put the finishing touches on the Wolverines 3-0 victory with a high-velocity kill at match point, sending the Bayfield cheering section (mainly the football team, the soccer team and the cross country team) into a purple frenzy: 25-10, 25-17, 25-18.

I dont care where I play; I just like playing, said Reinmuth, who could be seen at any position on the court at any time in coach Kelley Rifilatos multiple lineup combinations.

Its nice to be able to go in ... (where) anyone needs me, said Reinmuth, who specializes in versatility for the 9-1 Wolverines, ranked No. 3 this week by coloradopreps.com.

Reinmuth, the daughter of Patty Lawton and Mark Reinmuth, had a half-dozen digs in the opening set when the Wolverines went on an 11-2 run.

Her back-to-back ace serves ended the quick first set at 25-10. They were but two of seven aces for the Wolverines in the opening set.

Were getting tough serves again, the BHS head coach said after the Wolverines finished with 13 aces in the three-set match.

I think, for the most part, we kept the tempo of the game moving right along, Rifilato said.

We were efficient early, she said. Jen (Phelps) and Kirstie (Hillyer) both put the ball away.

Hillyer, Bayfields 6-5 sophomore, had three kills in each set to go with a pair of aces.

The senior Phelps, converting set after set from Rhodes, led all hitters with 16 kills. And no hitting errors. Zero. Zip.
